PRESS

For seven years, VORTEX has been an award-winning, must-attend event for major players in the IT industry. And this year, with the industry on the verge of critical changes and major opportunities, VORTEX is more crucial than ever for those who want a head start on the next era in IT.

At VORTEX 2004, top executives will set the IT agenda. Industry giants, CIOs, up-and-coming technology disruptors, and investors will gather, not to listen to lectures, but to actively debate and discuss strategy, vision, and perspectives on the future. These are the people whose decisions will shape the next era of IT.

VORTEX 2004 will be lead by Network World President John Gallant and Geoffrey Moore, highly acclaimed author of Crossing the Chasm, The Gorilla Game, Inside the Tornado, and, most recently, Living on the Fault Line. They will convene with C-level executives from the world's most influential established and early-stage companies for two days of unscripted, no-nonsense discussions, debates, and fireside chats.

The speaker list reads like a who's who of the leaders in enterprise IT. Confirmed so far are top executives from SAP, Oracle, EMC, Cisco, IBM, Wellpoint, Cassatt, Hewlett Packard, and IDC. Check back with our Speakers page for the latest updates on who else will attend this critical event.

And please feel free to sign up for a complimentary subscription to VORTEX Digest. Each week, John Gallant and the growing community of "Vorticians" share unparalleled insights into the news and issues shaping the network industry agenda.
